Giants cornerback Corey Webster faces tough challenge in covering Wes Welker

"Corey Webster has done a remarkable job this season covering a slew of big, No. 1 receivers such as Larry Fitzgerald (6-3), Sidney Rice (6-4), Steve Johnson (6-2) and Brandon Marshall (6-4). But covering the Patriots' No. 1 receiver on Sunday – the 5-9 Wes Welker – might be too tall a task.

"I'm a bigger guy than them so those little jitterbug-type of guys are a little harder," said the 6-foot Giants cornerback. "You've got to be more patient at the line of scrimmage with those guys. ... I have more trouble with the little jitterbug types."

Welker leads the NFL with 57 catches and is second with 824 receiving yards this season. The Pats' other starting receiver, Deion Branch, is also 5-9."
